SIR CYRIL BURT, ESP and psychology, edited by Anita Gregory, London, Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1975, 8vo, pp. vii, 179, £4.50. Although Cyril Burt (1883-1971) is best known for his work on the application of psychology to education, to the development of children and to the assessment of mental qualities, he also contributed to ESP, as an obituarist had to point out (The Times, 15 October 1971). T...

Needs analysis is often referred to as one of the essential parts during period course design. This study, choosing a skilled-centred ESP Nuclear Science English research object, aims conduct needs and evaluation. It founded that although target are very clear, many students still lack motivation learn it, for itself fails satisfy learners’ subjective needs. In terms evaluation, this with profe...

This study investigated the intervention of Zimmerman & Hutchins (2003) Information Synthesization vs. Visualization on Iranian Undergraduate ESP (Accounting) learners’ reading comprehension achievement across gender. 120 ESP University students majoring in Accounting in Iran participated in this study and were assigned to 4 homogeneous groups, 30 male and 30 female students in experimental gro...

sodic soil is one of the most common problems of limiting agricultural production that related on irrigation. saturated hydraulic conductivity is one of hydrodynamic characteristics in evaluating transmission flow through underground levels. to investigate the role of increment of exchangeable sodium in hydraulic conductivity changes (as characterized by the mobility of water in soil) an experi...

Low resistive particulate matter (PM) generated from marine engines or diesel generators has been known to be difficult to collect by the conventional electrostatic precipitators (ESP). In the present study, the double-cylinder type ESP (DC ESP) was developed to remove low resistive diesel exhaust particles. Two ESPs, namely, the conventional singlecylinder type ESP (SC ESP ) and DC ESP were in...

Helminths and their products can suppress the host immune response to escape host defense mechanisms and establish chronic infections. Current studies indicate that macrophages play a key role in the immune response to pathogen invasion. They can be polarized into two distinct phenotypes: M1 and M2. The present paper examines the impact of the adult Hymenolepis diminuta (HD) tapeworm and its ex...

The severity of Zn deficiency increased with increase in soil exchangeable sodium percentage (ESP) with salt sensitive variety M1-48 scoring 6 at ESP 62 as against only score 3 by salt tolerant variety Pokkali under similar soil conditions. Strikingly, zinc contents were much higher in salt tolerant variety than in salt sensitive one. Zinc application increased zinc concentration in the roots b...

Excretory-secretory products (ESP) play an important role in the host biochemical defense by means of activities of detoxifying and antioxidant enzymes. The aim of this study was to evaluate praziquantel (PZQ) effects by detection of glutathione S- transferase (GST) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) enzymes activities in ESP samples of Fasciola spp. Fasciola gigantica and Fasciola hepatica a...

Anti-poverty programs implemented in recent years in developing countries typically have multiple goals beyond improving income levels. Assessing the effectiveness of these interventions has gained increased currency in light of the UN‘s Millennium Development Goals. We introduce multidimensional poverty measures to the program evaluation literature in order to provide a comprehensive measure o...
